Editorial Reviews

You'd be forgiven to think this was the soundtrack to Legally Blonde: Not only does Superchick's "One Girl Revolution" appear on both CDs, but female voices dominate and flaxen tresses abound on the cover and booklet of Laguna Beach spin-off The Hills. The overall vibe is a pop-rocky girl-positive one, and the selection is pretty dead-on. If you enjoy big, anthemic choruses, there's plenty to choose from here, including "Long Way to Happy," one of the unheralded gems on Pink's 2006 album I'm Not Dead, or Danielle McKee's "Ordinary Superstar." You also have your pick of new wave, both vintage (Missing Persons' 1982 track "Walking in L.A." still sounds fabulous) and contemporary (the Pink Spiders' "Little Razorblade" and its utterly addictive synth hook). Soundtrack habituée Imogen Heap is present, of course, with the deceptively inventive "Loose Ends," and even Good Charlotte, among the few dudes on offer here, delivers the ultra-poppy--if typically whiny--"I Just Wanna Live" (these guys have to be the cuddliest punks, like, ever!). Overall, this is a fine collection of catchy pop tunes. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

I admit that I LOVE The Hills and all the drama that surrounds it. I always wondered about the music. I admit I don't know more than half of the artists, but the album is definitely great. I would recommend that to anyone who loves music. I am glad I got this album.

I never watched the thing and never will but love it music.Just what I needed for the summer pop/rock/punk all over the CD.Such great bands plus a bitchin remix of the not so huge one girl revolution by Superchic(k).Nothing more needs to be said,just buy the CD cause it's really worth it!...

My friend loved the series The Hills. I purchased this for her on her birthday and all she could do was listen to it. It arrived in good condition and made for a great birthday gift.
